Psychic probe allows the rerolls and alpha monster gives you a victory point if you "roll an attack". My question is, does rolling an attack mean right when it gets rolled, or does it mean at the very end of all the rolling?

For example, let's say someone rolls an attack on the first roll. Does the victory point get rewarded then, or is the psychic probe wielder allowed to reroll that attack dice after the 3 rounds of rolling to see whether or not that victory point is awarded.

Alpha Monster doesn't award you points for rolling attacks. Technically, you don't roll "attacks," but "claws" to attack with. The text on the Alpha Monster card reads: Gain 1 when you attack. This is only gained once upon the final resolution of your claw dice. For example:Roll 1 - 2 claws, 1 energy, 1 one, 2 threesRoll 2 - 3 claws, 1 energy, 1 heart, 1 three (kept 2 claws, 1 energy)Roll 3 - 3 claws, 1 energy, 2 hearts (kept 3 claws, 1 energy, 1 heart)The final result is resolved, and because you have Alpha Monster, you gain just a single because you attacked.

If you have Alpha Monster, and someone rerolls your dice with the psychic probe and it turns up a claw, you gain a single , even if it adds another claw to claws you already may have rolled...because you will attack.

If you have Alpha Monster, and you reroll someone else's dice with the psychic probe and it turns up a claw, you don't gain a because you are not the one attacking.

Anything that concerns "attacks", "Healing", scoring points, and various dice combos is only applied and figured out at the very end after all of our re-rolls have taken place. In the end, it is only your final roll that you keep that matters and is used to trigger the various abilities that you have access too.
